I’m taking a break while I figure out what new incarnation this blog will take. But in the meantime, here’s what’s been happening:
I was named one of the top 100 sex bloggers! (Full list from Between My Sheets below the jump.)
12 of NYC’s […]

Twice today I took off my clothes: once at the dungeon, and once in a painting studio.
Near the end of the evening’s painting class, I strolled the room in my robe and looked from easel to easel. My favorites are the short gesture studies — they capture movement. I love seeing my poses […]

I’m sad Spitzer resigned so fast! It took all the fun out of my fantasy.
I’d begun to collect the various arguments I’ve dispensed across the Internet the past couple of days, when I realized that Glenn Greenwald had done it for me, without all the cursing and impotent frustration.
If you read one thing on […]

Spitzer, darling. What were you thinking?
I don’t mind if you patronize prostitutes. I think it should be your legal right. However, you should ask your wife about it first — and oh yeah, make sure it’s legal in the state you govern. It looks bad when you’ve made your name as a […]

You have bruises on your thighs.
Oh — it’s nothing.
Did you get those here? By “here”, he means the Midtown dungeon where he has hired me to play submissive.
Oh, no.
Then who?
One of my boyfriends. It’s the easiest word.
He beat you?
Yes.
And you liked it?
Very much.
Did he fuck you afterward?
He did.
Does he fuck you in the […]

Bo of Bleufetish Video kindly pointed out to me that my blog (along with Adele Haze and Nikki Flynn) is mentioned in the February issue of AVN Online magazine.
… I think something … significant is going on. We have porn performers using blogs as means of self-promotion. They are making themselves characters and, maybe, eventually, […]

My drunken sarcasm translates badly on the Internet. Still, my first two commenters got it wrong. Can we give the stereotypes a rest? I’m a whore, which doesn’t tell you anything about my character. I guess I’m friendly, but that doesn’t make me a whore. And all sorts of people use […]

or, Why Kink Should Have Me On Salary.
Mona left a comment on a previous post of mine, The Internet Is For (Sharing) Porn. My reply got lengthy, so rather than reply in comments, I wanted to post it here.
Mona writes:
Calico,
The stuff on kink.com disturbs me to no end. I understand that sex […]

Yesterday was the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers.
Trixie tears it up on her blog (emphasis hers):
Violence against sex workers boils down to two things: a woman who demands money for sex is a woman who is saying NO to sex without money. For all of our fancy talk and progress, our society […]

When I started this blog in March I told no one about it.
I wanted it to be available to women like me. Sex work was shrouded in mystery, and I couldn’t find information anywhere. What did these porn models really think? All I had were their glossy bios to go on. I […]
